Family is gone so I'm making these again. Apologies to those who have me blocked. It must be odd for you all to see one random GDT before having them vanish again.

 

[macleish1974]

The first I heard Warren Zevon I was blasted away. I thought who is this insane man........one of the best albums of all time.

Families are fun aren't they? Wish they would go away half the time.

Now for the Flyers........neither the worst or best teams of all time. They are in the Twilight Zone of
mediocrity. Should be an interesting line-up.

 

[Danko]

I agree

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Keep the losses rolling!

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

If only.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

If only.

I look at this bullshit and realize that Foerster and Brink are being sent back and then we're going to sub in ND and Hathaway for the whole season. f***ing garbage.

Also, that last D-pair is so f***ing bad. Jesus.

 

[Danko]

the F*CK Line, i like it.

Assuming your going to see one or both of Ginning/Attard off the roster tomorrow

 

[VladDrag]

If only.

I would be much more excited to watch the Flyers if this was the regular lineup. But you have to imagine Walker, Seeler, Staal, Deslauriers, Hathaway are going to get into that lineup one way or another...

Is there a team that starts 5 worse players than those listed?

 

[04hockey]

wanna see York (assuming he's healthy?)
definitely wanna see Brink
as far as Foerster goes.....
like the GM said "the players will determine who plays"

 

[VladDrag]

HA! I would say that Attard and Ginning are worse than Walker, probably worse than Seeler, and maybe worse or maybe better than Staal, but I get your point.

I think my top 6 would look something like the following...

York-Sanheim
Andrae-Walker
Zamula-Risto

Or

York-Walker
Zamula-Sanheim
Andrae-Risto

They really need at least one top pairing D, and one more top 4 D.

 

[renberg]

If only.

Prayers for York. He must have pissed on someone’s shoes.

 

[Beef Invictus]

If only.

Why are we still looking at Ginning? He can't play.

 

[Curufinwe]

If only.

It kills me when reporters don't list D-pairs properly.

I'm 99% sure Attard won't play the left with Ginning on the right.

 

[Curufinwe]

HA! I would say that Attard and Ginning are worse than Walker, probably worse than Seeler, and maybe worse or maybe better than Staal, but I get your point.

York-Walker
Zamula-Sanheim
Andrae-Risto

With the dmen they have, I think the top pairing should be York-Sainheim getting 20+ ES minutes a game. The other pairings will be much less good.

If only Torts actually decided the lineup on merit!

 

[Beef Invictus]

Rosters updated in the OP. Flyers have a roster advantage on paper.

I'm glad you said paper and not a tablet screen. I think paper is too advanced for Torts. Now if we're talking about a STONE tablet, then we're in the ballpark of Tort's wheelhouse.

Something fitting about manually typing out the Flyers roster and doing a fancyass screenshot of Boston's

 

[FLYguy3911]

@BigToe try to keep it in your pants tonight.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

From the little I’ve watched Ginning looks like a two pack of ass.

ummm everyone of those guys will be a roster lock

 

[dragonoffrost]

Anyone who watches this should be subjected to the Bruins broadcast all night instead of the new useless Philly one.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Torts is behind the bench tonight!
